Keep reading to find out what they are.
That’s because the movie is actually based on the famous Shakespeare play “Twelfth Night.”
In “Twelfth Night,” Viola dresses as a man after a shipwreck.
She ends up working for Duke Orsino and helps him win the heart of the beautiful widow, Olivia.
For instance, in “Twelfth Night,” Viola calls herself Cesario.
In “She’s the Man,” the characters constantly eat at Cesario’s.
In “Twelfth Night,” Olivia’s servant, Malvolio, is in love with her.
It’s no wonderBusiness Insider Australiacalled this movie “the greatest modern Shakespearean remake!”
There’s also the romance that develops between Viola (as Sebastian) and Duke.
Even though Duke thinks Viola is a boy, he still finds himself developing a certain attraction.
Of course, these situations are designed to be funny.
But they also show us that attraction can sometimes be a little more fluid andnon-binarythan we thought.
In other words, he’s a bona fide movie star.
However, when “She’s the Man” was made, he was anything but an A-lister.
In fact, he had very few credits under his belt.
Just imagine if his career hadn’t been kickstarted by this movie.
As a girl, Viola is expected to attend the upcoming debutante ball.
Soccer is seen as a distraction.
“Girls aren’t as fast as boys.
Or athletic,” her coach says.
“Girls can’t beat boys.
It’s just as simple as that.
It’s a scientific fact.”
But once you look closer, you’ll notice they have some skills!
It turns out, both Amanda Bynes and Channing Tatum worked pretty hard to look like real soccer players.
Bynes added that she had to work hard to learn to play.
“When I watched the movie …
I was sort of impressed,” she confessed.
Tatum also trained for the movie.
“We had the double on stand-by,” Fickman toldE!
But, in the end, Tatum performed the trick himself.
“That beautiful bicycle kick shot is all Channing, first-take,” Fickman said.
“He had just worked so hard.”
Wow, we are impressed!
And you may not have realized just how much detail went into the performance.
And Fickman made sure Bynes kept it up while filming.
Your posture shouldn’t be that good,'" Fickman toldRadioFree.com.
As she toldPaper Magazine, it was “a super strange and out-of-body experience.”
We can hardly blame Bynes her transformation into a boy is pretty spot on.
“She is a stunningly beautiful woman.”
Of course, this just makes her performance even more impressive.
Thank goodness they did!
However, it turns out, the three actresses did pretty much everything themselves.
So, the stunt doubles taught the actresses some moves.
Her only regret was not having more to do in the scene!
It’s clearly set somewhere in the U.S., but it’s hard to tell where.
It looks like possibly California or even the east coast.
As it turns out, the movie was filmed in Vancouver, Canada.
This filming location sometimes made things tricky.
“Vancouver’s weather is an unpredictable mystery,” Fickman said in the featurette.
The crew even had to make the sky look bluer in post-production.
Remember that brief moment during the fun makeover scene when Viola is seen walking the streets impersonating random guys?
“That is actual footage,” Amanda Bynes explained toMTV.
Jones played in the English Football League before becoming anactorknown for playing a series of tough guys.
And that’s because there are tons of amazing lines!
It turns out, many of the movie’s best lines weren’t actually planned they were improvised.
“We allowed the cast to play,” director Andy Fickman toldE!
For instance, his bizarre line, “Have a great apple and sandwich” was an improvised line.
Emily Perkins, who played Eunice, also improvised a few lines.
As Fickman told E!
That is largely thanks to the zany performance of Julie Hagerty.
Her character always tries to get Viola to embrace being a debutante.
